If you give a mom a main course....



 It was a great idea. Pancakes for the kids (J and I aren't hungry). It is a boxed mix just add water (or milk) and ya have yourself pancakes! Then I decide to look for sausage, don't find sausage but find a bag of shredded potatoes. Great. There's the side.  Then the 6 year old wants to help. Cool. That wouldn't be so hard if it didn't slow me down so much. I really want him to help and learn to cook and love cooking, but I barely have the mental and physical capabilities to just get dinner done and on the table when I have it all mapped out in my head. (My head map and real life never coincide. Why is that?) I need to have extra everything when I am cooking with a kiddo. 

No. just no. Did I mention I forgot to take my meds this morning?  I think if I had just left it at pancakes everyone would have still been happy and the kid and I would have both had a better time. Next time.

So yeah, how is your Monday going?
